Aquilegia - F1 Earlybird Purple Yellow

This compact columbine features vibrant bi-color blooms of rich purple and sunny yellow perched above neat mounds of lacy blue-green foliage. Reaching about 23–30 cm (9–12 in) tall with an 20–30 cm (8–12 in) spread, it offers early to mid-spring color when few other perennials are in bloom. The upward-facing spurred flowers attract hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees, making it ideal for containers, rock gardens, borders, or cut flower use. Cold-hardy and deer- and rabbit-resistant, it's a low-maintenance, long-lasting delight for garden edges and mixed plantings.
